The independent Parliamentary Budget Office’s analysis suggests that the Greens’ policy demands in return for supporting a minority Labor government would cost about $110bn. Amongst other things, the Greens want to expand Medicare to include dental services, which would cost an estimated $46bn over four years. The Greens propose to finance its policies via a 40 per cent tax on the excessive profits of large companies and by increasing the tax rate of 150 billionaires. EQ Economics’ MD Warren Hogan says large companies and billionaires would simply take their money – and jobs – offshore.
